Owen Wilson?

I really don't get what Moriarty sees in Owen Wilson. He's always come off as kind of annoying to me. I thought he was boring in Shanghai Noon, and totally unequipped to play the lead in The Minus Man, a role that required an actor of more talent and ability than he had to offer.
Congrats to John Oates (Or Whoever) On Being First!

After all of the years of dead-ends and near-misses, the perseverance finally pays off! See, dreams do come true! Like the guy who finally catches the ever-elusive foul ball at the ballgame, you have now officially peaked in life. Now go see if your songwriting partner Daryl Hall has got the next "Maneater" ready.

I could watch his Cable Guy cameo 100 times and it's still so goddamn funny. ""Scuse me, scuse me, pardon me, pardon me, hey! What's the story with the chicken, man?" "You're sexy. You heard me." Watch him steal this movie from Dr. Dolittle.
Man I really wish she was still in MIB 2.

She really is sexy which is what the role called for and also would've played a great villain just like in "Goldeneye". That said the "I, Spy" movie worries me a bit not the cast because I think they got some good talents in there but the direction of the film itself. If it's a Comedy then it will be in trouble and Sony will request that it becomes one of those Self Aware cheesy TV movies like "Charlie's Angels" and that will suck. I mean just because it starred Bill Cosby it doesn't mean it was a laugh riot. I thought the show was clever suspensful at times and super entertaining. I'm almost sure the movie will be butchered and turned into a buddy movie which is just sad. It could be good but it just won't be "I, Spy" and whatever happened to the "Man From U.N.C.L.E." movie? Now THAT still has potential to kick serious ass.

Anything that keeps Eddie Murphy away from farting-animal movies
by Nosferatu Jones

...although, wasn't there some farting going on in SHREK? I forgot. Oh yeah, enough with the Klumps, too. Where's the Eddie Murphy gone from 48 HRS. and TRADING PLACES (hey, I even liked COMING TO AMERICA and BOOMERANG)? Lately, all Eddie seems to do is DR. DOLITTLE, Klump movies and voice work for cartoons. Waitaminute. All those said movies have made--what?--3.5 gazillion dollars? I've answered my own question. Money wouldn't be so bad if it didn't make people so complacent. (Oh yeah, I'll pay to see Famke strut her stuff in anything. Is Robert Culp in this one? Where's those GREATEST AMERICAN HERO DVD's? Am I making any sense? Come back, William Katt! All is forgiven!) Forget it. I'm going to bed.
Where's Pluto Nash?

Someone mentioned Pluto Nash. WTF happened to it? Wasn't it supposed have been released this summer? They finished filming it up here in Montreal last summer. (I even know a couple of the extras, but none of them met Eddie Murphy.) Will Pluto Nash prove to be another big budget shot-in-Montreal dud like Snake Eyes, Battlefield Earth and (probably) the new Rollerball? Perhaps the fact that production moved to Vancouver because of the threat of labour difficulties will prove to be a godsend for Daredevil, as it will escape the Montreal curse. (I liked The Score and the Whole Nine Yards okay, but both were *set* in Montreal.) __________________________ Steve Brandon Kiyone_Mabi@galaxypolice.com
From Famke to Lara Flynn-Boyle? God help us.

I'm sorry if I offend anyone but I've wanted to snap-kick Lara Flynn-Boyle in the back of the head since I first saw her in TWWIN PEAKS. I looooove Famke Jansen, and nearly went into a coma with excitement when I heard she was in MIB 2, but now we've got that cat-eyed wench. Oh, well, at least they won't have to do much make-up on her to turn her into an man-eating alien stick insect.

I don't know why, but I actually got some random email yesterday morning about Pluto Nash. I probably signed up to some movie site or some crap like that. Anyways, this one guy has informed me the reason we're not seeing Pluto Nash right now. The movie was supposed to be out last April. They pushed it all the way to May next year! Don't know why, but then I found out the reason. Apparently, whomever sent me this email, that looked a lot like a written article that would appear in some Internet movie journal, is because the movie tested so poorly with audiences, the crew went back to the editing room for severe tweaking. That's NEVER good news, for any film, evidently Rollerball (an evitable turd-or-rama in its own rite) is undergoing the same fate. And being an Eddie Murphy fan, that's making me wince more because i want the guy to get another hit under his belt. Like it or not, talkbackers, just because he's 40 doesn't mean his career's dead. But I will say the promo poster for Pluto Nash is one of the most ridiculously cheesy ads I have ever seen. We see He's still going to go down in film history as one of the most successful and storied stars in the business. Ok, now Chris Tucker is ok, but don't blow smoke up his ass just because he's so young and hip. Eddie started that whole stick and made it possible in 1984. He's making movies, arguably "safe" roles because a) he knows where he's at with his career, getting thrown out of windows and swearing at cops inappropiately arresting him does not appeal to audiences anymore (they'd rather see a kid stick his dick in a pie) and b)he can. The dude's made so much even when he was at his peak, and he's already claimed he'll do family pics if he wants do, his career could end tomorrow and he wouldn't care because he was content with being a father. Back to the thesis statement, I can only pray Pluto Nash doesn't blow.

it was Richard Pryor who started that foul-mouthed cool black comedian schtick, to my knowledge. Of course, someone even older than me will probably correct me and say that it was some even older fart who started it all.

So I farted the other day and a solid turd came out. It pressed up against my Aeron chair and my butt cheeks, thereby forming it into the shape of Owen Wilson's nose. I removed it from my shorts, took my GI Joe action figure of 'Kwik Kick' and played out scenes from Shanghai Noon. I got good ol' Ben and Matt to put 'Project Greenlight' into action and I will begin to make more movies starring my malformed floaters and other action figures. Remember to eat your Wheaties! And he was only funny in Meet the Parents. The 'built it from a solid piece' line was excellent.

Red Fox was the man. Pryor took what Fox did, pushed it a little farther, then Murray took what Pryor did and pushed it farther and then Lawrence took what Murray did... Yadda yadda yadda. I highly reccomend the "My Dick" sketch by Red Fox. It's a classic.

Glad to see you're still alive. And a movie of "I, Spy," well, why not? I actually like Owen Wilson and I don't care what his nose looks like, and at his best Eddie Murphy is great. Let's just hope this ends up more like the film of "The Fugitive" and less like Sonnenfeld's "Wild Wild West" (ugh).
Owen Wilson rocks but I would have prefered Amhed Best

Murray just isn't funny in live action anymore. I mean he is GREAT at voice overs... He was a riot playing Donkey in Shrek. But his live-action performances of late have sucked. I would like to see SOMEONE give Amhed Best a chance to prove he is NOT Jar Jar. He couldn't help Lucas can't write funny dialoge to save his life. Had Lawrence Kasdan wrote the script Jar Jar would have been funny. As himself Amhed is a really funny guy.

He is so lame anymore he can't make a good ORIGINAL movie. What has he done lately? Flubber and Dr. Dolittle and their sequels. Remakes and sequels. Now another remake. Someone shoot me please. Why can't hollywood come up with any thing original?????!!!!!!
Eddie's not that bad. It coulda been worse, it coulda been Orla

I can't say with certainty that he started it all - but he definitely pre-dates Richard Pryor. I heard that he was one foul mouthed mofo back in his stand-up comedy days! BONUS TRIVIA: The name Redd Fox was his "stage name" - his REAL name was actually John Sanford (Now we know where the name Sanford from "Sanford and Son" originated from)

... and the other old dudes. I swear, there is nothing new under the sun. Except computers. Computers seem pretty new. Quantum theory. Relativity. Evolution. Okay, maybe science and technology can be truly new. But does art and culture really come up with truly new and non-minor stuff? Probably. I probably just don't know enough or haven't thought about it enough. Whatever. As if anyone is still reading this old Talkback. The only reason I happened to come back is because so few new articles have been put up on aicn lately.

If you are unconvinced about Owen Wilson's capabilities, please rent or re-rent Bottle Rocket. CLASSIC. Every thing the guy says kills me. LOTR and the rest of the Fall 2001 Saviors look great but none as much as The Royal Tannenbaums.
